When you travel to the other side of the world, jetlag is a real problem. You find yourself awake in the middle of the night and you feel like going to bed on the morning, just when everyone around you is getting up. Jetlag happens when you go in a country where the time is different. For example, you might leave London on midday and fly to Los Angeles. The flight takes about eleven hours, so when you arrive at Los Angeles airport, your body thinks you’re there on 11 pm. But Los Angeles is eight hours behind London, so you actually get there on 3 pm local time. So, at midnight Los Angeles  time, your body (which still thinks it’s in London) says it’s 8 am. It takes a few days for your body clock to change.
